Essential reading for every American citizen

This book is the absolute touchstone for Washington as a man and a leader. The detailed account of his triumphs and trials clearly establishes his position as "Father of our country", and proves his worth not only as our first President, but as a historical figure of monumental achievement. It is a sad sign of our times how few libraries and schools carry this book. It should be standard reading for all educated patriots.
